Stepped off the plane into a world so cold Branded a killer in stories untold
Spit on and shunned, no hero's parade Haunted by memories that just won't fade
Searching for work but the war's in my mind Trust is a luxury too hard to find
Flashbacks and nightmares keep me awake In a land of the free, my soul's at stake
All he knew was the fight Dawning brothers through the night
Now he's lost in a battle of his own Searching for a place called home
Homeless and drifting, tried every escape Drugs just a bandage on wounds wide agape
Until a stranger reached out a hand With an offer that wasn't just another demand
A bible, a beacon in the depths of the night Words that could heal, could show me the light
We read it together on a park bench dim I asked him his name, why he cared about him
He said, I'm Jesus, you're not alone I've come to find you, to bring you home
You're that one lost sheep from the flock I keep And for you I climb mountains steep
All he knew was the fight Guarding brothers through the night
Now he's found in the arms of grace In a simple faith he finds his place
All he knew was the fight Guarding brothers through the night
Now he's found in the arms of grace In a simple faith he finds his place
No longer a soldier in a war without end Now a warrior of peace, beginning to mend
On streets no longer, but in pastures green He walks with Jesus, his heart washed clean
He walks with Jesus, his heart washed clean
